Why It's Going To Suck: It's The Fifth Paranormal Activity Oh, look: another one. You can't exactly blame the studios for pushing out yet another installment in this cheap to make film franchise because it turns a hell of a profit every single time they do. So the keys have apparently been handed to a guy named Gregory Plotkin for this installment, because he was the editor on the last four movies, and that should do, shouldn't it? Regular Katie Featherson is also set to return for this installment. The reason this is going to suck beyond belief, then? Mostly because the idea has been completely and utterly worn thin by the existence of four films already - how many times can you create a jump scare around this premise and this mythology? And even though this was recently delayed from a scheduled 2014 release to a 2016 one, don't expect the longer production process to ensure a better movie; where else is there to go?
